Bosch Blue
Inspecting tight spaces is now quicker and easier
with the launch of Bosch Blue’s GIC 120 and GIC 120
C professional inspection cameras.
When inspecting long or complex systems, many
tradies have experienced difficulty determining
where on the display was up and where was down;
these days are now over with the new range of
Bosch Blue inspection cameras. The new GIC 120
introduces ‘Compass View’, giving users a visual
marker of where the real camera ‘up’ position is.
Likewise, the premium GIC 120 C navigates through
even the most complex pipes and passages with total
ease, thanks to the exciting new ‘Up is Up’ innovation.
Micro sensors in the camera’s 8.5mm compact head
automatically rotate the image, ensuring the display
is always correctly oriented. Up now truly is up.
IRWIN Tools
IRWIN Tools’ VISE-GRIP curved jaw
(CR) locking pliers are putting the
power back in the hands of tradies
around Australia, featuring a self-
energising lower jaw that delivers
three times more gripping power
than traditional locking pliers, with
absolutely no slipping or stripping.
The IRWIN VISE-GRIP CR
establishes multiple contact points
with the work piece, guaranteeing a
significantly tighter grip. The slotted
geometry of the new ‘self-energiSing’
VISE-GRIP Curved Jaw locking pliers
exponentially increases torque
power, and more torque means more
clamping power.
The locking pliers are available in
two core models: Fast Release, with
a one-handed, trigger-less release
and anti-pinch, non-slip ProTouch
Grips; and Original, with a classic
trigger release.

Panasonic Australia
Panasonic Australia has released a rugged radio designed to take the
punishment of onsite and outdoor use. Ideal for tradies, the radio has a robust
body design with a protective cage, plus high quality sound and convenient
Bluetooth connectivity so users can stream all their favourite tunes.
There is a USB charging port, and owners of Panasonic Power Tools can
power the radio with their existing Panasonic 14.4V or 18V Li-ion batteries. AC
power can also be used.

Rhino Rack
The Rhino-Rack Pioneer Tradie Tray is the ideal solution for tradespeople in all
industries, carrying a wide variety of gear on the roof of your vehicle. The open
front and back end means you can easily load ladders, planks, pipes and other long

work tools.
Built as tough-as-nails, the Tradie Tray is crafted with reinforced nylon and
aluminium for extreme durability in all environments and conditions. Featuring
fully-welded side rails to make
loading and unloading easier, the
tray is also non-corrosive so it
won’t rust or fade and can rest
well knowing your equipment will
be stowed safely on board for
years to come.
